You know what really aggravazes me? It's them immigants. They wants all the benefits of living in Springfield, but they ain't even bother to learn themselves the language.

First...you draw a diagram of someone shutting the fuck up. And then you draw red arrows pointing to it.

DUDE. The other day I was jugging up this gnarly bouldering route and when I reached the sketch-o-matic crux, I realized I left all of my tinnies in the car. Damn Bro! At first I thought it was a highball, but then I reached some rap anchors! What in the shizzy yo? Then I saw something glinting about me...sort of like my tinnies that glint in the sun. Beautiful. And that is when my broseph spot yelled "Yo bro. That is multi-pitch. Not highball. Hella sketch! Retreat!" So, I had to reverse jug down that scree pile. And by the time I got my ass in the safety zone, my spot had downed every last tinnie.

seriously guys, if one of you ever wanted to translate any of John Long's climbing stories to other languages, it can never be done right.

Has Trainspotting or A Clockwork Orange ever been translated into a foreign language? I wonder how that worked out.

is this right ?

A climbing hold is a shaped grip that is usually attached to a climbing wall so climbers can grab or step on it. On most walls, climbing holds are arranged in paths, called routes, by specially trained route setters. Climbing holds come in a large array of sizes and shapes to provide different levels of challenge to a climber. Climbing holds are either bolted to a wall via hex-head bolts and existing t-nuts or they are screwed on with several small screws. In extreme cases, concrete anchors may be used (if putting holds on the underside of a bridge, for example).

Es brillig war. Die schlichte Toven
Wirrten und wimmelten in Waben;
Und aller-mümsige Burggoven
Die mohmen Räth' ausgraben

Bewahre doc vor Jammerwoch!
Die Zähne knirschen, Krallen kratzen!
Bewahr' vor Jubjub--Vogel, vor
Frumiösen Banderschnätzchen!

Er griff sein vorpals Schwertchen zu,
Er suchte lang das manscham' Ding;
Dann, stehend unten Tumtum Baum,
Er an-zu-denken-fing.

Als stand er tief in Andacht auf,
Des Jammerwochen's Augen-feuer
Durch tulgen Wald mit wiffek kam
Ein burbelnd uhgeheuer!

Eins, Zwei! Eins, Zwei! Und durch und durch
Sein vorpals Schwert zerschnifer-schnück,
Da blieb es todt! Er, Kopf in Hand,
Geläumfig zog zurück.

Und schlugst Du ja den Jammerwoch?
Umarme mich, mien B&oumlhm' sches Kind!
O Freuden-Tag! O Halloo-Schlag!
Er chortelt froh-gesinnt.

Es brillig war. Die schlichte Toven
Wirrten und wimmelten in Waben;
Und aller-mümsige Burggoven
Die mohmen Räth' ausgraben

I don't know when most of the translations were originally done, but the made-up words have been translated into many languages. German, French, Latin, Hebrew... and so on. It's a curious thing.
